This pattern is 8 pages long and contains loads of photos to guide you through the step-by-step process of making your own Cockatiel… The pattern is written using American crochet terms.

You will need:

Yarn of your choice. Yarn weight doesn’t really matter - the size of your project will simply turn out bigger or smaller! I used Patons Smoothie DK Yarn (this is quite a thick DK yarn so it is equivalent to aran or light worsted weight in other brands) and my finished cockatiel measures approximately 9cm tall.

You will need the following colours:
Grey, yellow, orange, white & beige.

A suitable size hook for the yarn you have chosen - I used a 4mm hook.

Toy stuffing.

A pair of 6mm black safety eyes.

Other tools you will need are a tapestry needle, some scissors and a stitch marker.
